Alpha Mats Folding Gymnastics and Exercise Mat, PU Material & EPE Foam, Perfect for Aerobics, Yoga, Martial Arts

My girls were so excited when they got the mat 2 days ago. It was holding up fine as they did their back flips on it until 24 hrs later when it stadrted ripping. For the price you pay you would hope it would last for more than 24 hrs.. when we read reviews that it could rip easily, we were hoping it wouldn’t rip that soon. Very disappointing. Hopefully seller will be responsive and give us some good options.Update: I was very pleased with the seller’s prompt response when I emailed him with my issue. Within 24-48 hrs I received a replacement mat and a shipping return label to return the first mat that ripped. Because of this I changed my rating to 4 stars. Great customer service!

Inexcusably horrible quality. Avoid at all costs. I've only had this a couple months and the seams are so extremely weak that it's split almost the entire length of the middle seam at this point. As you can see in the pictures where it's busted open, they only left about a quarter inch of fabric at the seams. As someone who owns a quilting business, I can professionally say that their seam allowance (the amount of extra fabric they leave when they sew two pieces of material together) should be at least three times what it is. Flimsy, pathetic product. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I was worried about ordering a mat online without first seeing it but I was very satisfied once it arrived. My daughter uses it for gymnastics and she loves it! The cushion is very thick and the material seems durable. It's also incredibly lightweight for its size. My 9 year old folds it up on her own and can carry it wherever she wants.

I’ve been looking everywhere for longer length yoga and gym mats, to use for exercising at home. My issue is that I and my family are on the tall side, of the height spectrum. The standard 68 inch - 70 inch mats were just too short, this mat is just what we needed, it provides more that adequate space for over-6-footers to strech and exercise on. It’s durible and sturdy, easy to open and fold back up, and is firm. I also like that there are multiple color options and that if you purchase multiple mats, that they can be linked up by their Velcro strips, as well as be secured to the floor with Velcro. All around good purchase.

Would be a really nice mat, but a seam ripped after only 30 minutes of play.

Very disappointed. These rips are after 2 light uses. I bought them for jujitsu and used them for light drilling (not even full rolling) on two occasions and they tore at the seams during those two uses. This is not a complaint about customer service because I didn’t attempt to pursue any resolution. I considered returning them right after but the hassle of packaging them and sending them back was more inconvenient. Plus, looking at other reviews, I had no confidence that replacements would fair any better. I’ll tape them up and continue using them for as long as they last. To add insult, they dropped to half price a month after I purchased them. I’m very surprised at the lack of durability.

I use this as a yoga mat. The dimensions were correctly listed in the ad. I didn’t realize how huge it was! It’s 2” thick. Even when it’s folded, it's too big to fit under my bed, which is where I planned to put it when not in use.I’m not complaining, just letting you know.The mat is so comfy that it could be used as a bed for a visitor. It also seems to be very sturdy. I’ll let you know how it holds up. I do recommend this mat for yoga or most any exercise.

My child opened this on December 25th, 2018. She wasn’t unusually rough or careless with the mat. By December 28th 2018, it’s already coming apart at one of the seams. Feeling disappointed. Seemed like it was going to be a good mat for tumbling until this.

Exactly as advertised
